Agenda 03/24/2015 Item #16E4 3/24/2015 16.E.4.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to remove the Goodland Fire District MSTU from consideration for alternative
provision of fire service.
OBJECTIVE: To continue the provision of fire services for the Goodland Fire District from the Marco
Island Fire Department.
CONSIDERATIONS: On December 9, 2014, the Board directed the County Manager to solicit
proposals for provision of fire service to the County's (4) four Fire District MSTU's from the dependent
and independent fire districts within the County. In accordance with that direction, a proposal request
was sent to the Immokalee, North Collier, and Greater Naples Fire Districts as well as to the County's
Bureau of Emergency Services. The due date for submissions was March 19, 2015. An informational
meeting was held on February 26, 2015, at which time the agencies requested and the Procurement
Division authorized an extension for submissions to April 16, 2015.
Subsequent to that meeting, representatives of Marco Island City Council and the Marco Island Fire
Department approached the County regarding the Goodland Fire District, which is served via Interlocal
Agreement by the Marco Island Fire Department. Under the terms of this agreement, tax revenues
collected net of costs to the Tax Collector and Property Appraiser and the Indirect Cost Allocation are
remitted to Marco Island Fire Department in return for fire service. Call volume is relatively low, with
fewer than 25 fire/rescue calls annually on average. Budgeted net revenue for the last five years is as
follows:
FY2011 $99,100
FY2012 $86,400
FY2013 $77,000
FY2014 $88,700
FY2015 $94,900
Marco Island is requesting that the Goodland Fire District be removed from consideration for alternative
fire service provision. If this or any other change is granted by the Board, notification will be forwarded
to the agencies that received proposal requests.
FISCAL IMPACT: This action will have no impact on the County's budget.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and requires majority
vote for Board approval.—SRT
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this
item.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Board removes the Goodland Fire District MSTU from
consideration for proposals for operations and management of the County's dependent fire districts.
